It appears the return of “The Tribal Chief” Roman Reigns is on the horizon. According to a report from WrestleVotes, Reigns’ name has popped up internally within WWE in recent weeks.
This is typically a signal that the “wheels are in motion” for a superstar’s return to television. Although not confirmed, it could be happening in preparation for this year’s SummerSlam premium live event.
Reigns has not been seen on WWE programming since the Raw after WrestleMania 41, where he was brutally attacked by his former special counsel, Paul Heyman, and the newest members of The Visionary’s faction, Bron Breakker and Seth Rollins. There has been no official word from WWE on a specific date for his return.
It seems that time of year again—Roman Reigns’ return is on the horizon. Sources indicate his name has popped up internally in recent weeks, typically signaling the wheels are in motion for a return heading into the biggest party of the summer.
